XYZ Donating Members 1,171 Member For: 15y 2d Posted 05/11/10 09:20 PM Share Posted 05/11/10 09:20 PM Hi Senna,The intercooler pipes you will find are the weakest links in the FG’s. Many people have blown them even on standard boost levels.. So once you start adding more boost to your car it will only be a matter of time before they go.. As a few others have said, you can get the replacement pipes and keep your standard intercooler. They are pretty cheap these days, so they are worth while mod so you can take advantage of your new found power and safely add more boost..http://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=71030Have a chat to CV.CheersBen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senna Donating Members 32 Member For: 18y 5m 30d Posted 05/11/10 11:28 PM Author Share Posted 05/11/10 11:28 PM I'm convinced. Spoke to CV, they're having the dyno serviced on monday anyway, so work has been postponed till the following monday. Which gives them time to get the intercooling piping in, $500 fitted.Thanks again for the info gentlemen (and ladies if there are any) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
